Presented by Black History Walks this course will detail Black women who have fought against colonialism and racism over the last 400 years and examine their varied spiritual belief systems.

Mainstream history consistently ignores the contribution of Black women in general but many of these women used indigenous spiritual belief systems to sustain their own ideologies and inspire their followers.

African civilisations and belief systems were, and are, routinely denigrated by Europeans which has led to stigma and mis-representation.

This is the first half of a 12 week course. Part two dates will be announced shortly.

Part One is a general introduction and Part Two will go deeper into specifics and new but related topics.
